about

This was my first collaboration with Agitation Phi, and it was something of an inadvertent collab [often the best] where a stream of comments I had made on one of her tracks [Purple Saturation] became like a free form poem. Phi then added the poetic comments to the track as spoken word.

Here I have remastered it, reworked it, and added so much new stuff, particularly to the first half, that it is almost a new track and so has been renamed.
This was all done with Phi's blessing.

lyrics

Purple Saturation (inside out)
Your End is your Beginning ....
poetry by Bill Boethius

Moanin' at midnight ...
drop molten colour into the cauldron
bass vibrates the cosmos and collapses time.

We have entered the space ark.

I am dismembered delightfully in damask feedback
and the black hole sucked in all matter and antimatter
this coagulation,
when the matter begins to get ready for its transformation
you have now been turned inside out
your end is your beginning, and your beginning is your end.

Arise beauteous one, for you have been blasted in the furnace
and are now cleansed and drenched in Pharaohnian gold
go hand in hand children ...
for we have now touched our horizon ...
what treasures abound in worlds anew ...
pristine ... purple hue
we have been raised to the very pyramids of our understanding!
we are bodies in space ... wild starry copulations.

Must we return to the Earth? yes, for everything is a circle
but you see the earth so differently now!
ye are above it and survey from a noble height
only the bass can carry you across the many worlds like this,
it is the sonic ship
now melody caresses you
and describes order out of chaos -
starchilde, you are now master of both ...
wings sprout from my back and from my ankles ... I have levitation
the gods move through us and we through them in eternity's cycle
through sound in all its extremes we find inner realisation
and shed the crust of then and when
the pythoned bass makes an end to this seance ...
the gods are in raptures
